18 Connection tracking keeps a record of what packets have passed
19 through your machine, in order to figure out how they are related
20 into connections.

22 This is IPv6 support on Layer 3 independent connection tracking.
23 Layer 3 independent connection tracking is experimental scheme
24 which generalize ip_conntrack to support other layer 3 protocols.

247 Masquerading is a special case of NAT: all outgoing connections are
248 changed to seem to come from a particular interface's address, and
249 if the interface goes down, those connections are lost. This is
250 only useful for dialup accounts with dynamic IP address (ie. your IP
251 address will be different on next dialup).
